Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum value is when cos x = 1

So it is -2 + 4(1) = 2.

Minimum value, when  cos x = -1:

= -2  + 4(-1) = -6.

Answer:

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's first look at cos(x) on interval (0,21].

How many rotations is that? Does it at least contain 1 full rotation? If it contains one full rotation that means all the values from -1 to 1 (inclusive) are tagged? If it doesn't contain a full rotation, we might have to dig a little deeper.

So we know x=0 isn't included and that's when cosine is first 1,but this doesn't mean 1 won't be hit later.

Let's figure out the number of rotations:

21/(2pi)=3.3 approximately

This means we make at least 3 rotations.

So this means we definitely will have all the values from -1 to 1 tagged (inclusive).

Now let's look at whole function.

f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x

-2+(-4) to -2+4 will be the range of the function

So the minimum is -6 and the maximum is 2.

So the min occurs when cos(x)=-1 and the max occurs when cos(x)=1.

We have a little over three rotations and remember we can't include x=0.

cos(x)=1

when x=2pi (one full rotation)

when x=4pi (two full rotations)

when x=6pi (three full rotations)

We will stop here because cosine won't be 1 again until a fourth full rotation

cos(x)=-1

when x=pi (half rotation)

When x=3pi (one + half rotation)

When x=5pi (two+half rotation)

We can't include x=7pi (three+half rotation)

because this one is actually not in the interval because 3.5 is more than 3.3 .

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

AD = 6x - 4 and AC = 4x - 3
salantis [7]

Answer:

CD= 2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = 6x-4

AC = 4x - 3

CD= AD- AC

CD=  6x-4 - (4x - 3)

CD= 6x - 4 - 4x +3

CD= 2x -1

Therefore, the value of CD= 2x-1

gregori [183]

Answer:

(4x + 2)° = (6x -10)°

4x + 2 = 6x - 10

4x -6x = -10 -2

-2x = -12

x = <u>-</u><u>12</u>

-2

x = 6°
